    If you enjoy "cartoon realism" as you called it (which I do to), I can wholeheartedly recommend the Bone comic series. I'm sure you know it already, but thought I would mention it just in case.

      Oh yeah, Bone is a classic! Thanks for the recommendation. 😃

    Good points here, and the illustration does look like it's straight from a scene in the comic. Great work!

      Thanks Christopher! It was fun to draw, and a chance to use a brush pen I hadn’t tried in years. 😁

    I gotta say, I am really impressed with the line-work on the forest in the corner. It really captures the chaotic order of wild brush in the dead of winter well

      Thanks! I’m pretty sure I copied it directly from a C&H strip 😆

    Wow! I really liked how you bought me back to my Calvin and Hobbes days. I'm going to bring down my hard copies and see if my daughter of 10 will appreciate them now 😄

      What a great idea! Let’s share a fantastic comic with a new generation.
      Thanks! 😃

      Awesome idea. Share it so it can continue to live. This was and is my all time favorite comic. So much fun. When I read the first couple I was hooked. Great memories during that time.

    I believe Waterson would be inking the strips very quickly - to introduce a liveliness and a kinetic Woosh to all his pieces.

      Oh yeah, genuinely drawing quickly to create energy and movement in a cartoon is a big one. Thanks!

    • @studiobrushpen
      @studiobrushpen  4 дні тому +1

      Good question! It’s an uncoated 200gsm white paper, from my local office supply store. It works great for pens and markers, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it for pencil or wet media. 😃

    • @studiobrushpen

      Also, it’s not a particular brand that I’m aware of, just what they had at the store. I hope that sends you in the right direction!
